In the book
As a child you looked outside yourself to learn what to value; as an adult, the work is to decide for yourself. Stop comparing outward; compete only with yesterday. Quit the race against everyone else entirely; the only worthy contest is against the person you were yesterday, competing with yourself to become a little better than you were. And mind your company, because you slowly become the average of the five people you spend the most time with — choose those five as carefully as a crew. — Who Is Flying (Self, Nature & Nurture)
